Through the project Amit had the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of study planning, design, execution and statistical analysis relevant to technical evaluation of a specific type of AI product.

Fellowship Testimonial

The fellowship has given me a broad understanding of the various facets of clinical AI including regulation, governance, clinical safety and challenges for clinical implementation. Beyond this, I have expanded my network, met some wonderful fellows and am seeking opportunities to take this forward.
